Hover state does not display tables!
I've just discovered that the nice tables I pasted in Hover states of my buttons won't display in preview mode or when published.
Is this a bug?
To reproduce, just paste a table in Hover state of any object.
Thanks.

Thanks Maria.
As a workaround, I copy-pasted tables from Powerpoint instead of importing the slide : they appear as SVG graphics instead of tables.

Hi, Pierre.
Thank you for reaching out!
We have a bug reported where tables do not show up when added to a hover state of an object.
I've connected this discussion to the bug report, and I'll be sure to come back to update you when I have some news.

Any update on this? I just discovered this bug today.
Hello UFCU_DevTeam,
Thanks for reaching out! I want to confirm that our team has identified this behavior to be related to hover states not supporting table objects. I have logged this as a feature request with our product team. We'll be sure to share any updates in this thread so everyone is in the loop!
In the meantime, if you are using PPT, PierreJouan shared a workaround that could be of help.
Have a wonderful weekend!

Thanks for your answer Tom!
The problem is you can copy tables in the hover states and it behaves OK until you preview your slide.
I understand tables are not ordinary objects (and SL crawled when there were many of them on the stage) but I'd rather not be able to paste tables in states if that won't work afterwards...
Perhaps one of the support people will jump in and provide a better technical answer, but you will notice that tables themselves don't support hover states. I assume it's because of the nature of how tables are created inside Storyline since they're not normal objects you draw. Thus, copying that table into a hover state probably isn't supported for the table feature.
